THE PARTISAN NEWSPAPERS.

The Ncwsboy Unknown on the Streets of
tho French Capital.
One of the most characteristic street
cries of London and of New York is never
heard in Paris, nor is one of the most
picturesque figures in the streets of Lon
don and of New York ever seen in the
streets of Paris, for in France the noisy
and pertinacious newsboy is unknown.
The functions of this unstable dissent
nator of intelligence are filled in Paris by
thes taid old dame who sits at the receipt
of custom in n kiosque. A Partisan kiosque
has nothing oriental but the name. 1t is
a little sentry box of glass, just large
enough to shelter the news vender from
the changeable weather of tho French
capital. On n little stand in front of the
kiosque are tiny heaps of the countless
newspapers of the city, and on strings on
each side are pendant numbers Of the
chief illustrated journals, artistic and
comic. These kiosques are scattered
along the boulcvards, and from them the
Partisan buys his Figaro in the morning
and his Temps at 5 in the afternoon.
This difference of attitude between the
hurrying American, who has to have his
newspaper brought to him in haste hot
from the press, and tho leisurely French
man, who is content to pick up his paper
when he goes Abroad this difference is
far more than external; it is essentially

Strikes and Thelr Results.

WASHINGTON, Dee. %. Reconnaissance
Wright has submitted to the secretary of
the interior the third annual report OF the
bureau of labor, which relates entirely to
strikes and lockouts Tor the six years end
ing Dec. 81, 1856. The report is the re.
suit of the first general investigation ever
made by any nation of the facts concern
ing strikes and lockouts for any extended
period of time. The report covers about
100 printed pagesand gives details of each
strike and lockout occurring in the United
States during the period named. 1t ex-
hibits the facts belonging to each indus
trial trouble and for each locality where
the trouble was found, without attempt
ing to establish or decide upon the con-
nection between them.
a tabulatcd statement shows the num-
Der of strikes occurring during the last six
years, to have been 1903, the number Of
establishments involved -, 1856. In 1887,
the report says, there were. according to
the best information obtainable, S53
strikes, the details of which are not OBJ.
tainable. The building. trades furnished
COCO of the total number of establish
ments engaged in strikes. The total num-
Der of employees involved in the whole
number OF strikes for the entire period is
shown to have been 1878, 624.
The number of employees in all estab-
ishments before strikes occurred was
,662, 0i5, while the whole number en-
ploved in establishments involved after the
strikes occurred was l,636, 247, a loss of
25, 79S. There were l03, OBS new employees
engaged after the strikes and 37,4S3 were
brought from other places than those in
which the strikes occurred.
In ., lS2 establishments, lock-outs were
ordered during the period named. In
these there were ia, 995 employees before
the lock-outs occurred, while the number
acaally locked out was I59,54S. There
were 1876 new employees secured at the
close of the lock out and 5,6S2 were
brought from other places than those in
which the lock. out occurred.

DEFENSES

The detailed accounts of the bids
steel, says the San Francisco Post, show
u more gratifying state of affairs
than the public had ventured to hope.
The failure of the Fertilization bills has
really done no particular harm after all,
80 far as delaying our preparations for
defense is concerned. Its only effect has
been that predicted by Senator Hawley,
that it has opened the door TO monopoly.
II the great contracts authorized by the
Fertilization bills had been offered to
bidders, half a dozen companies would
have competed for the chance of filling
them. As it is, one establishment has
had the courage to begin its plant with
out waiting for anything more than the
chance Of securing the naval contracts,
and its enterprise will probably be re.
warded by the monopoly Of all the steel
hereafter to be purchased for coast de-
Tense. The monopoly will be we'll de.

81, 500, 900 in a plant on the bare chance
of being allowed to do Government
work. and the enterprise Of the Bethle.
hem Company deserves recognition.
There were three bids for gun forgings
and two for armor plate, but the Bethle.
hem was the only company that offered
to take both contracts, and, while it was
slightly underbid ON the gun steel, its
offer altogether was so attractive that it
will almost certainly be accepted. In.
stead Of having to wait two years and a
half, we shall be in a position to have
guns and armor on the heaviest scale and
of the finest quality known in the world
within fifteen months. This achieve.
ment is made possible by the fact that
the Bethlehem Company began its prep
arations over a year ago, and has its
plant now far advanced.
The advocates of compound armor
have criticised the Government for insist
ing ON steel, and have expressed the fear
that nobody would attempt to meet the
conditions imposed. This fear is now
happily ~dispelled. and we shall soon have
facilities for producing means Of defense
equal to any in the world. The Fiftieth

JACKSON AND THE SOLDIERS.

A Washington letter has the follow.
ing: One Of the most delightful racon-
teurs tells this interesting story concern
ing Andrew Jackson: A gentleman in
the Revolutionary War, who was well
known to Jackson, was Postmaster of a
prominent New York town. He had
been an Adams man, and Silas Wright,
one of the ablest representatives that
State ever had, and Martin Van Buren,,
who was then Jackson's Secretary Of
State, formed a coalition to have the
veteran warrior removed soon after Jack
SON had taken the oath of Office. The
SCARED hero determined to 90 to see
Jackson and plead his own case against
the powerful politicians who had deter
mined to punish him for his advocacy OF
Adams. He called upon Jackson at the
White House. The President engaged
in q familiar conversation with him,
when, to his amazement the old soldier
said: General Jackson, I have come
here to talk to you about my office; the
politicians want to take it away from me-,
and / have nothing else to live upon"
The President made no reply until the
aged Postmaster began to take OFT his
coat in the most excited manner, when
Old Hickory broke out with the inquiry:
What in heavens name are you going
to do?" swell, sir. l am going to show
you my wounds, which 1 received fight.
ing for my country against the English"
"Put it on at once, sir" was the reply.
"I am surprised that a man OF your
age should make such an exhibit
ton of himself" and the eyes OF the
Iron President were suffused with tears
as, without another word, he babe his
ancient foe good evening. The next day
Wright called on the President and made
out his case against the General and
urged his removal upon the strongest
grounds. He had hardly finished the
last sentence when Jackson sprang to his
feet. flung his pipe into the fire, and ex
claimed with great vehemence: 81 take
the consequences. By the Eternal !
will not remove the old man.. l cannot
remove him. Why, Mr.. Wright, do you
know that he carries more than a pound
of British lead in his body?" That was
the last of it. He who was stronger
than courts, courtiers or Cabinets, pro.
nounced his fat, and the happy old
Postmaster next day took the stage and
returned home rejoicing.
